When the world is going through difficult times we feel that it’s our duty as a community to improve awareness and provide any support we can.

Ukrainian citizens are forced to leave their homes. Family businesses, local communities in towns and cities are being destroyed. Their only options are to flee the country or stay and fight for their home.

The Tamiras family decided to support the cause the way that us and the community know best - through the music we love. We are forever grateful for the artists in the scene who put their time and work to contributing to this VA release - and of course any of the Tamiras community who purchase this release for aid.

This release is a collection of powerful tracks that represent a wide spectrum of the minimal sound. We have kept the release price low for affordability reasons. Higher donations are welcomed with open arms.

100% of profits are donated to charities aiding the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine. We will make the process as transparent as possible, and we would love to hear from the community which charities you’d like to receive the donations. We will decide on a final charity to receive the funds and announce donations upon payment.

We hope you enjoy playing the tracks and supporting the cause in Ukraine.

Wishing for peace & prosper in Ukraine.

Mantra Collective are proud to present the sixth release from our label Pandorea Records from Melbourne's very own Michaelis. No stranger to Pandorea Records, Michaelis produced "Wims Groove" was supported by international heavyweights across the world.

His new four track EP for Pandorea Records 006 is influenced by the house and minimal sounds coming out of Europe with his style of elaborate grooves and well placed wonk. Drawing inspiration from old funk and jazz and adopting an organic, sample-based process, his tracks have an intricate yet playful sound that draws you in and makes for beautiful listening and big dance floor moments.

With an attention to detail and a strong focus on groove - Michaelis is a producer and dj quietly turning heads with his intelligent take on minimal house.

Mantra Collective would like to acknowledge that all tracks were produced on the stolen land traditionally belonging to the peoples of the Eora Nation and the Kulin Nation. We pay respect to their elders past, present and emerging.

An emotional journey, Pitter Patter EP has everything within from jazz to world utilizing live instruments, samples and textures that are fused impeccably to form an introspective-predominant approach to minimal. Three Montreal natives Guillaume Coutu-Dumont & Vincent Lemieux also known as the Flabbergast duo and Ohm Hourani meet up in the studio, each working individually with Ohm to formulate 2 original works of music and thus formulating two new duo's Guiohm (Guillaume Coutu-Dumont & Ohm Hourani) and Wetsuit (Vincent Lemieux & Ohm Hourani). Let the music speak for itself.

Cold Moves

After a string of successful releases kick started in 2015 with a solo release from Kirik, vinyl only imprint Curtea Veche celebrate their 8th release with a selection of sounds from one of Bucharest's many talented producers - Guy From Downstairs.

Guy From Downstairs musical career started many moons ago, and to date the Romanian composer has released on a number of renouned labels, including Dilated Records, Tzinah and Phil Weeks imprint Robsoul, as well as his GFD imprint which launched in 2016.

Back in March this year, I was introduced to Victor (Guy From Downstairs) when visiting the city of Bucharest. Our mutual friend Direkt introduced us as we went over to Victor's place to hang out and play with some hardware before heading over to Guesthouse to see Vincentulian and Molly take to the turntables. His cosy home studio contained a lot of Hip Hop memorabilia and records, as well as various synthesisers which surrounded the big desk in the centre of the room. Hip Hop is something that has played a big part in Victor's story, and if you scan his Soundcloud profile you will be able to find some recorded Hip Hop sets that he has played in recent years.

As far as this release goes, both parties have lived up to their high standards. GFD has delivered another sublime release, which also includes a remix from Herck, a close friend of the label who's 2-Part release 'Sonetul Noptilor Fecunde' dropped on Curtea Veche last year, and of course, the brains behind the label have brought it all together and provided us with another outstanding release, sure to be a timeless classic.

We have selected the title track entitled 'Rodul' to be premiered here at Trommel. Opening with some glitchy sounds accompanied by some hats, the main body of the track starts to form over the first 2 minutes of the production. A combination of percussive sounds that bounce around the track give more movement. A sequence of notes from a synthesizer come into play and are a perfect match for the vocal that peers it's head shortly after. The spoken word vocal is from Guy From Downstairs' archive, and is a Japenese story telling that fits perfectly with the other elements of the production. Further down the line more sounds are introuced and add some different vibes to the track, allowing it to evolve even more so.

We are super excited to hear this do the rounds at parties across the world. The release has already recieved support from Petre Inspirescu, Priku, Livio & Roby and Floog, as well as many other artists at SW23 earlier this year.
